In addition, the molecular formula is C8H7ClO3 and the molecular weight is 186.59. It is also called Benzeneacetic acid,4-chloro-a-hydroxy-. What's more, it is a kind of white crystalline powder and belongs to the classes of Fine Chemical & Intermediates; Aromatic Carboxylic Acids, Amides, Anilides, Anhydrides & Salts.

Physical properties of Benzeneacetic acid,4-chloro-α-hydroxy- are: (1)ACD/LogP: 1.52; (2)# of Rule of 5 Violations: 0; (3)ACD/LogD (pH 5.5): -1.22; (4)ACD/LogD (pH 7.4): -2.18; (5)ACD/BCF (pH 5.5): 1; (6)ACD/KOC (pH 5.5): 1; (7)#H bond acceptors: 3; (8)#H bond donors: 2; (9)#Freely Rotating Bonds: 3; (10)Polar Surface Area: 35.53 Å2; (11)Index of Refraction: 1.605; (12)Molar Refractivity: 43.79 cm3; (13)Molar Volume: 127 cm3; (14)Surface Tension: 62.2 dyne/cm; (15)Density: 1.468 g/cm3; (16)Flash Point: 172.4 °C; (17)Enthalpy of Vaporization: 64.07 kJ/mol; (18)Boiling Point: 361.4 °C at 760 mmHg; (19)Vapour Pressure: 7.43E-06 mmHg at 25°C.

Preparation of Benzeneacetic acid,4-chloro-a-hydroxy-: it can be prepared by p-chloroacetophenone through bromination, hydrolysis and acidification reaction. Mix chlorobenzene, carbon bisulfide with aluminium trichloride at first. Then add ethylanhydride into the mixture with stirring. The reaction should reflux for 2 hours. And then after a series of washing, drying and vacuum distillation you can get 4-chloroacetophenone. Then add bromine into 4-chloroacetophenone at reaction temperature of 36-40 °C. Then go through washing by water and sodium hydrogen sulfite to get 4-ω,ω'-dibromoacetophenone. At last, you can get the desired product by means of hydrolysis, neutralization, extraction by ethyl ether, drying and crystallization.

Uses of Benzeneacetic acid,4-chloro-a-hydroxy-: it can be used as pharmaceutical intermediates. In addition, it can react with methanol to get 4-chloro-mandelic acid-methyl ester. This reaction will need reagent 2,2-Dimethoxypropane and catalyst p-Toluenesulfonic acid. The yield is about 68% at reaction temperature of 55 °C.

Benzeneacetic acid,4-chloro-a-hydroxy- can react with methanol to get 4-chloro-mandelic acid-methyl ester
